Electrical Guide Section for Cable Leadthroughs

Abstract

The application relates to an electrical guide section for feeding a motor vehicle cable through a wall of a motor vehicle, with a first connection for a power cable and a second connection for a power cable. A cable feedthrough of small construction space and easy to install can be achieved, in that the electrical guide section between the first connection and the second connection has an offset element which makes feeding of the cable through the housing possible, and in that the electrical guide section has a mounting for a securing device in such a manner that the securing device can be pushed into the mounting in order to secure the electrical guide section to the wall.
